Zhang Ming recalled how he had often received letters from dignitaries of various nations during his journey through the Demon God's Sea. Somewhat speechless, he opened one. "Dear Zhang, I am the supreme leader of the Great Western Nation, Aoguanshan Baizhenhua! I was overjoyed to hear of your return... (Several hundred words of empty talk followed.)
"We cordially invite you to visit the Oxi Historical Compound in the Great Western Nation to accept a gift of property. If you are willing, we will present you with a manor in a beautiful location, shares in the Rich Country Foundation... For this, we would be deeply grateful."
Had they written this letter ages ago?
Still, money in the mundane world really meant very little. With six hundred million on hand, Zhang Ming felt he could spend it until the end of time.
Zhong Yunlong swallowed. "Delivering invitations from major multinational corporations and national dignitaries is my assignment. I'm truly sorry. Read them if you're interested; if you don't have time, just forget them. You can ignore them. I'm only completing an assignment, after all. As you know, the Anomaly Investigation Bureau needs support from the various local nations, too. I have no choice, so please forgive me."
Zhang Ming found it rather amusing. Aren't you the neighborhood office director? How did you suddenly become part of the Anomaly Investigation Bureau?
Zhong Yunlong forced himself to continue. "But these matters concerning Human Civilization... are just a little important... Haha, of course, that depends on how you feel. Anyway, do it if you want. It's fine if you don't, just like Old Wang. Nobody would dare force you."
Beside him, Sun Minghan and Thor kept eating until their whole bodies felt hot and their mouths and throats were dry.
*Being a leader was fucking
